However, there is no consensus on when he will become a Barcelona player.

Mundo Deportivo claim the release clause will be activated on Friday. That would allow a presentation at Camp Nou to take place on Saturday.

Fellow Catalan outlet Sport, however, say an official presentation is more likely to be on Monday.
